Pre-Shipment Pick & Mix Offer

Sensational Sancerre and Perfect Pouilly Fume, Pre-shipment Pick & Mix!

Sancerre and Pouilly Fume not only continue to produce the most irresistibly aromatic, delightfully mineral and delectably refreshing, examples of Sauvignon Blanc, but also the most complex, expressive and age-worthy. Whilst the varietal has flourished in almost every corner of the wine-growing globe, producing delicious, fruit-driven wines, these regions are not able to replicate the sublime purity, minerality and that certain, je ne sais quoi, of the vineyards of these two iconic appellations of the Loire’s Central vineyards.

We have recently sent out an offer on the sublime Sancerre of Daniel Crochet and perfect Pouilly Fume wines of Michel Redde, which we are currently shipping, for arrival early next month. Please click here to view.

Pick and Mix – Pre-Shipment Bonanza! 
Spoilt for choice? Why not make up your own Six or Twelve bottle mixed case? We are delighted to offer you the option to pick and mix, from the tantalizing selection of Sancerre and Pouilly Fume below.

For an ideal introduction to the appellation, the mouth-wateringly ripe fruit, vibrant minerality and refreshing acidity of the wonderfully pure and classically fashioned, 2024 Sancerre Blanc from Daniel Crochet and 2023 Petit F, from Michel Redde are a must. The Pouilly Fume La Moynerie, regarded as the flagship of the Redde family’s domaine, is equally accessible, whilst possessing a greater depth and complexity, combining a riper fruit profile with more distinctive gun-flint minerality of Pouilly. Whilst the name Sancerre is synonymous with sublime Sauvignon Blanc, the red wines should not be overlooked either. Crochet’s straight Sancerre Rouge is an absolute delight! With its exceptional purity and unforced, natural balance, this is an irresistibly pretty Pinot Noir, full of charm and finesse combined with a subtle minerality of the terroir.

For a more profound experience, the single vineyard wines from both estates are exceptional. The reputation of the south facing, limestone terroir of Chene Marchand has become world renowned. Crochet’s 60 year old vines perfectly portray, the pristine minerality and persistent drive of this cru, whilst the multifaceted Grand Chemarin, planted in 1988 provides a more exotic fruit profile. Although the Petit F, offers one of the most pure and genuine introductions to Pouilly Fume, the Redde family’s real raison d’etre, is undoubtedly to showcase the incredible diversity and full potential of the appellation’s great terroir. To this endeavour, they have gone to incredible lengths to clear land and plant vines in extreme locations, to follow this quest. Indeed, it took many years of persistent determination, before their incredible Les Bois de St Andelain was recognised by the INAO, although it is now regarded as one of the most important sites of the region. Coming from Saint-Martin-sur-Nouhain, the Les Toupees, was a new discovery for me this year, but equally irresistible. Silky and unctuous on the palate with tantalizingly ripe fruit and a fine saline minerality. Last but by no means least, Daniel Crochet’s sensational Sancerre Rouge, Sur le Clou would sit proudly alongside many of Burgundy’s finest Premier Cru.

Whether you would like to try a selection of wines as an introduction to both appellations, to explore the individual ranges of Daniel Crochet, or Michel Redde, or to secrete a selection of some of the region’s most exciting Vins de Terroirs in the cellar, we invite you to Pick & Mix!
